Two missed calls within the last hour from Catoosa and Wetumka, Oklahoma.

apologies for replying with a non lead (I don’t consider myself a connoisseur) but my wife and I devised this fishing mini game drinking game and if nothing else it’s a fun thought. not tested so no idea if it’s feasible

Screenshot of notes app:
Drink like a Fish
Gauntlet of fishing mini games
- stardew valley
- Fire emblem three houses
- Animal crossing
- Hades
- Minecraft
- Palia
Shot between each game
Variations:
- Hold the Line - The systems are all set up side by side, draw lots, you can complete in any order but have to wait in line
- Any% / 100% - catch any fish vs harder instructions (catch a 5 star, catch a platinum, catch it perfectly, build your own Minecraft rod, etc.)
- High as a pike - no alcohol, an edible ahead of time OR a hit after every game

“Portrait of Ross” by Félix González-Torres. The piece is a mountain of candy in a corner of a museum, equal to the weight of Félix’s partner, Ross. Museum guests are encouraged to take a piece of candy at a time, slowly reducing the pile’s weight and size until there is nothing left, just like AIDS gradually took Ross’s body. The candy is brightly colored and inviting in contrast to the blank white wall and pale wood flooring.

An article by The Hill posted today, Monday July 6th at 5:45 ET with the headline “DO NOT USE: A lookback at Mitch McConnell’s time in the Senate.” The only visible story text repeats the title and then says “NOTE - do not use TBD.” The photo includes either a photo or still of a video with a chyron from The Hill that says “Sen. Mitch McConnell Announces Retirement.”

A tweet from Issac Chotiner that simply includes a pointing emoji at an image. It was posted today July 6th, 2026, shortly after the Platner allegations dropped.

The image he’s pointing at is a screenshot of a tweet by Matt Stoller on June 5th, 2026, which says “Graham Platner represents a rejection of Dem HR lady politics.”

Is it possible you haven’t filtered for places currently open? I see 20 locations listed as open currently, all with the 12 AM to 11:59 PM schedule, but 302 locations overall open during the day

The NYC Cooling website with the “business hours: open now” filter checked.

okie (they/them)@okie· Jul 4

everywhere currently open is open fully overnight; the system shows it as closing at 11:59 pm because the website doesn’t have the capability to not have a closing time. this is NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellavue as an example; it will be open through at least Sunday overnight.

Hours of Operation
Please check this site daily as cooling center hours of operation may change.
Sunday 12 AM to 11:59 PM (all day)

me: secret lair is an obvious cash grab by wizards also me: look at the babyyyyy 🥺🥺🥺

The Court of Grace Secret Lair Magic the Gathering Card. It's a two and two white mana enchantment, but the real draw is the illustration: a painting by Vanessa Stockard of a tiny black kitten with huge yellow eyes perched on top of a cupcake with pink icing. The cat is wearing a white Victorian ruff that covers nearly its whole body and a tall golden crown. The flavor text reads: "She's a generous ruler, but the cupcake belongs to her--alone!"

this is how the person who uploads all the volts game videos to YouTube edits their video covers and it cracks me up

A video titled “Volts vs. Spark Jun, 11 2026 FULL GAME 3 Athletes Unlimited Softball League.” The left side has the Texas Volts’ and Oklahoma City Spark’s logos and the right has a photo of a Sparks player throwing the ball to teammate as a Volts player slides into base. The photo has text overlayed in 2000s word art style that says “Full Game” “June 11 2026” “3 home runs” “crazy game” and “OMG!” with three exclamation points. All of the word art is in different colors.

dear lord this website is trope after trope (also lol at that price)

Extremely large white italicized font on a black background. The text is cut off, but the visible text reads:

For far too long the American church has struggled to understand its role in the public square. Christian passivity has lead to cultural and political downfall. What was once a majorly Christian country is now on the verge of collapse as we see the rise of Paganism, Secularism, Nihilism, Islam, and more.
The only remedy is the revival of a robust,
muscular Christianity.

One of the keynote speakers, a white man with frighteningly wide eyes that still somehow have nothing behind them. He is smiling unnervingly at the camera. His bio reads:

Sean Davis is CEO and co-founder of The Federalist. He previously worked as an economic policy adviser to Gov. Rick Perry, as CFO of Daily Caller, and as chief investigator for Sen. Tom Coburn. He was named by The Hill as one of the top congressional staffers under the age of 35 for his role in spearheading the enactment of the law that created USASpending.gov.
Sean received a BBA in finance from Texas Tech University and an MBA in finance and entrepreneurial management from the Wharton School.

Another keynote speaker. This white man is standing outdoors in front of a mountain in a suit jacket and blue collared shirt. He is smiling cheesily and his hair plus beard combo reminds me a lot of JD Vance. His bio reads:

Kenny Cody is the Opinion Editor for Human Events. He is the former Chairman of the Cocke County (TN) Republican Party, and current Trump endorsed Republican candidate for Tennessee House District 11 State Representative. He has written for various conservative outlets throughout his writing career, including the Washington Examiner, Daily Wire, Townhall, Newsmax, and Newsweek. He has appeared on conservative media shows such as Triggered with Donald Trump Jr., Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec, for Real America's TV, Roger Stone's STONEZone, and The Matt Gaetz Show on One America News Network.

Early bird pricing is $60 and general admission is $100. lol lmao.

The cover of a book titled "If I Understood You, Would I have This Look on My Face?: My Adventures in the Art and Science of Relating and Communicating" by Alan Alda. It features a caricature of Alda with a large head, making a funny face and throwing up his relatively small arms in exasperation, as well as a quote describing the book's humor and lessons on communication by Forbes. It was a New York Times Bestseller.

Milly says go vote (and then give her your sticker) #DidThisToday

Milly, a grey tabby cat, enthusiastically sniffs a sticker that says “I voted. Yo voté.” that is lightly stuck to my index finger.

Milly mid-chomp on the voting sticker, with visible motion blue around her lower jaw as she lunges (no fingers were harmed).

The sticker is now in her teeth and her head is tossed to the side. There is visible motion blur on my whole hand as I try to take it away from her.

from the article:

Screenshot from the above article by Bolts Mag, under the header Federal Government and drop-down subheading US Senate: Democrats:

Nebraska

May 12

In this primary, both candidates seem to be playing three-dimensional chess. Republican Senator Pete Ricketts faces independent challenger Dan Osborn in November, and many Democrats think that Osborn is their best shot to oust Ricketts and don't want an additional candidate to split the anti-Rickett vote.

Candidate Cindy Burbank is likely to drop out to help Osborn if she wins. She and the Nebraska Democratic Party have called her primary opponent, an anti-abortion pastor named William Forbes, a Ricketts "plant" who is likely to stay in the race if he wins. Forbes recently said he voted for Trump in 2024. (The GOP Secretary of State tried to remove Burbank from the ballot in March, but the state supreme court reversed that decision.)

Result: Come back after May 12.
